NOTES TO UNAUDITED CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
--------------------------------------------------------------
JUNE 30, 2000
-------------
THE INFORMATION PRESENTED HEREIN AS OF JUNE 30, 2000 FOR THE THREE AND SIX
MONTHS ENDED JUNE 30, 2000 AND 1999 IS UNAUDITED.
(a) BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The condensed unaudited financial statements of the Company have
been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission (the "Commission"). Certain
information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial
statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting
principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to Commission
rules and regulations. The information furnished reflects, in the
opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting only of normal
recurring adjustments) necessary for a fair statement of the results
for the interim periods presented. Operating results for the three
and six months ended June 30, 2000 are not necessarily indicative of
the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31,
2000. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be
read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes
thereto included in the Company's latest Annual Report on Form 10-K.
Certain amounts have been reclassified for comparative purposes.
The accompanying financial statements of The Deltona Corporation and
subsidiaries ("The Company") have been prepared on a going concern
basis, which contemplates the realization of assets and satisfaction
of liabilities in the normal course of business. The Company has
incurred losses from operations resulting in a stockholders'
deficiency as of June 30, 2000. The Company has been dependant on
its ability to obtain financing from related companies to meet its
cash requirements. There can be no guarantee that the Company will
be able to obtain sufficient financing in the future or that related
parties will continue to make loans to the Company. The consolidated
financial statements do not include any adjustments relating to the
recoverability of asset amounts or the amount of liabilities should
the Company be unable to continue as a going concern.
(b) INVENTORIES
Information with respect to the classification of inventory of land
and improvements including land held for sale or transfer is as
follows (in thousands):

(c) MORTGAGES AND SIMILAR DEBT
The following table presents information with respect to mortgages
and similar debt (in thousands):
June 30, December 31,
2000 1999
-------- ------------
Mortgage Notes Payable ................. $ 6,000 $ 6,600
Other Loans............................. 6,168 5,114
-------- --------
Total mortgages and similar debt.. $ 12,168 $ 11,714
======== ========
Included in Mortgage Notes Payable is the Yasawa loan ($6,000,000 at
June 30, 2000); included in Other Loans is the Swan loan ($6,168,000
as of June 30, 2000).
6
<PAGE>
Indebtedness under various purchase money mortgages and loan
agreements is collateralized by substantially all of the Company's
assets, including stock of certain wholly-owned subsidiaries. The
Company's outstanding debt to Yasawa is secured by a first lien on
the Company's receivables and a mortgage on all of the Company's
property; and the Company's outstanding debt to Swan is secured by a
second lien on the Company's receivables. The Company satisfied its
debt obligation to Scafholding.
The terms of repayment of the Yasawa debt provide for monthly
payments of principal in the amount of $100,000 payable monthly in
cash or with contracts receivable at 100% of face value, plus
interest payable monthly on the declining balance at the rate of 6%
per annum (reduced from 9.6% effective January 1, 1999) in cash or
with contracts receivable at 65% of face value. Yasawa has not
required the Company to make monthly interest payments for the
period September 1, 1998 to June 30, 2000. As of June 30, 2000, the
total amount of interest accrued on the Yasawa debt is approximately
$883,000.
From October 9, 1998 through the present, Swan has advanced the
Company funds to meet its working capital requirements. The
Company's outstanding debt to Swan, which is secured by a second
lien on the Company's receivables, is approximately $6,168,000 and
accrued interest on the Swan debt of $151,000 as of June 30, 2000.
The Company signed a promissory note to Swan in March 1999 which
provides that funds advanced by Swan will be paid back by the
Company monthly in contracts receivables at 90% of face value, with
recourse. There will be no interest for the first six months after
an advance of money is received from Swan by the Company; thereafter
the interest shall be 6% per annum on the outstanding balance of the
advance. Each time an advance is made, a supplemental note is
signed. The amount of each monthly payment will vary and will be
dependent upon the amount of contracts receivable in the Company's
portfolio, excluding contracts receivable held as collateral for
prior receivable sales. Pursuant to the terms of the promissory
note, the Company is required to transfer to Swan monthly as debt
repayment all current contracts receivable in the Company's
portfolio in excess of the aggregate sum of $500,000. Funds advanced
by Swan were used by the Company to pay outstanding real estate
taxes for unsold properties with the balance to meet the Company's
working capital requirements.
The Company recorded interest expense on all outstanding debt
balances to Yasawa and Swan at 8%, the Company's incremental
borrowing rate. The difference between interest calculated at 8% and
the amount accrued under the terms of the respective notes was
recorded as capital contribution increase to capital surplus.
(d) COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES
Homesite sales contracts provide for the return of all monies paid
in (including paid-in interest) should the Company be unable to meet
its contractual obligations after the use of reasonable diligence.
If a refund is made, the Company will recover the related homesite
and any improvement thereto.
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had estimated development
obligations of approximately $25,000 on sold property, an estimated
liability to provide title insurance and deeding costs of $181,000
and an estimated cost of street maintenance, prior to assumption of
such obligations by local governments of $610,000, all of which are
included in deferred revenue. The total cost to complete
improvements as of June 30, 2000, including the previously mentioned
obligations, was estimated to be approximately $816,000.
In addition to the matters discussed above and in Item 3 of the
Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31,
1999, the Company is a party to other litigation relating to the
conduct of its business which is routine in nature and, in the
opinion of the management, should have no material effect upon the
Company's operation.
(e) CAPITALIZED INTEREST
The Company capitalizes interest cost incurred during a project's
construction period. Of the total interest cost incurred of $506,000
and $336,000, $47,000 was capitalized for the six months ended June
30, 2000 and none for the six months ended June 30, 1999,
respectively.

<PAGE>
(f) EARNINGS OR LOSS PER SHARE
Basic earnings (loss) per common and common equivalent share were
computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average
number of shares of Common Stock and common stock equivalents
outstanding during each period.
(g) RELATED PARTY TRANSACTION
In January 2000, the Company purchased 16 lots and homes under
construction from Scafholding for approximately $862,000. This
amount represents Scafholding's lot cost and payments to date to the
home builder. This transaction was 100% financed by Swan under its
existing note payable arrangement.

<PAGE>
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT'S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Since December, 1992, the Company has been dependent on loans and advances from
Selex International B.V., a Netherlands corporation ("Selex"), Scafholding B.V.,
a Netherlands corporation ("Scafholding), Yasawa Holdings, N.V., a Netherlands
Antilles Corporation ("Yasawa"), Swan Development Corporation, a Florida
corporation ("Swan"), and related parties in order to implement its marketing
program and assist in meeting its working capital requirements.
The Company had satisfied its outstanding debt to Selex and Scafholding; the
Company's outstanding debt to Yasawa is $6,000,000 secured by a first lien on
the Company's receivables and a mortgage on all of the Company's property. The
terms of repayment of this debt have been restructured to provide for monthly
payments of principal in the amount of $100,000 payable monthly in cash or with
contracts receivable at 100% of face value, plus interest payable monthly on the
declining balance at the rate of 6% per annum (reduced from 9.6% per annum
effective January 1, 1999) in cash or with contracts receivable at 65% of face
value. Yasawa did not require the Company to make interest payments for the
period September 1, 1998 to June 30, 2000. As of June 30, 2000, the total amount
of interest accrued on the Yasawa debt is approximately $883,000.
From October 9, 1998 through the present, Swan continued to loan the Company
funds to meet its working capital requirements. The Company's outstanding debt
to Swan, which is secured by a second lien on the Company's receivables, was
$6,168,000 and accrued interest on the Swan debt of $151,000 as of June 30,
2000. The Company signed a promissory note to Swan in March 1999 which provides
that funds advanced by Swan will be paid back by the Company monthly in
contracts receivables at 90% of face value, with recourse. There will be no
interest for the first six months after an advance of money is received from
Swan by the Company; thereafter the interest shall be 6% per annum on the
outstanding balance of the advance. Each time an advance is made, a supplemental
note is signed. The amount of each monthly payment will vary and will be
dependent upon the amount of contracts receivable in the Company's portfolio,
excluding contracts receivable held as collateral for prior receivable sales.
Pursuant to the terms of the promissory note, the Company is required to
transfer to Swan monthly as debt repayment all current contracts receivable in
the Company's portfolio in excess of the aggregate sum of $500,000. Funds
advanced by Swan were used by the Company to pay outstanding real estate taxes
for unsold properties with the balance to meet the Company's working capital
requirements.
Since January 1, 1999, the Company has recorded interest expense on all
outstanding debt balances to Yasawa, Scafholding and Swan at 8%, the Company's
incremental borrowing rate. The difference between interest calculated at 8% and
the amount accrued under the terms of the respective notes was recorded as a
capital contribution increase to capital surplus. The Company recorded interest
expense and a capital contribution in the amount of approximately $217,000 for
the six months ended June 30, 2000.
During 1998, the Company transferred 14 lots and 4 tracts of land to Swan. In
return, Swan built an office complex on part of the land for use by the Company
for a period of 54 months, renewable thereafter. The Company valued the land
transferred at approximately $440,000 and recorded the net present value of the
use of the office complex of approximately $375,000 as prepaid rent. The
difference between the net present value of the rent and the cost of the land of
approximately $290,000 is recorded as deferred profit.
RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
---------------------
For the six months ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999.
Revenues
Total revenues were $4,590,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($2,503,000 for
the quarter ending June 30, 2000) compared to $4,457,000 for the comparable 1999
period ($2,273,000 for the quarter ending June 30, 1999).
Gross land sales were $3,497,000 for the first six months of 2000 versus
$2,285,000 for the comparable 1999 period. Net land sales (gross land sales less
estimated uncollectible installment sales and contract valuation discount)
increased to $2,862,000 the first six months of 2000 from $1,793,000 for the
first six months of 1999. For the three months ended June 30, 2000, net land
sales increased to $1,693,000 from $1,180,000 for the comparable 1999 period.
The increase in sales reflects higher sales by the Company's independent
dealers.
9
<PAGE>
Housing revenues were $1,130,000 for the first six months of 2000 versus
$2,045,000 for the comparable 1999 period. Revenues are not recognized from
housing sales until the completion of construction and passage of title. Housing
revenues decreased as of result of less closings on sales by the Company's
independent dealer network. The backlog of houses under contract was $5,613,000
and $3,298,000 as of June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999, respectively.
The following table reflects the Company's real estate product mix for the
periods indicated (in thousands):

======== ========= ======== =======
---------------------
* New retail land sales contracts entered into, including deposit sales on
which the Company has received less than 20% of the sales price, net of
cancellations, for the six months ended June 30, 2000 and June 30, 1999
were $4,470,000 and $3,285,000, respectively and $2,971,000 and $1,931,000
for the three months ended June 30, 2000 and 1999, respectively. The
Company had a backlog of approximately $2,386,000 in unrecognized sales as
of June 30, 2000. Such contracts are not included in retail land sales
until the applicable rescission period has expired and the Company has
received payments totaling 20% of the contract sales price.
Improvement revenues result from recognition of revenues deferred from prior
period sales. Recognition occurs as development work proceeds on the previously
sold property or customers are exchanged to a developed lot. Improvement
revenues totaled $140,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($91,000 for the
second quarter 2000) versus $187,000 for comparable 1999 period ($86,000 for the
second quarter of 1999).
Interest income was $169,000 for the first six months of 2000 versus $211,000
for the comparable period in 1999. The decrease is the result of a decrease in
the Company's contracts receivable, resulting from the sale and assignment of
contracts receivable to the Company's lenders.
Other revenues were $289,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($ 97,000 for the
second quarter of 2000) versus $221,000 for the comparable period in 1999
($112,000 for the second quarter of 1999). Other revenues are principally
generated by the Company's title insurance and real estate brokerage
subsidiaries.
Costs and Expenses
------------------
Costs and expenses were $5,108,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($2,619,000
for the second quarter of 2000) versus $4,976,000 for the comparable period in
1999 ($2,495,000 for the second quarter of 1999). Cost of sales were $1,779,000
for the first six months of 2000 ($897,000 for the second quarter of 2000)
versus $2,213,000 for the comparable period in 1999 ($967,000 for the second
quarter of 1999).
Commissions, advertising and other selling expenses totaled $1,852,000 for the
first six months of 2000 ($1,005,000 for the second quarter of 2000) versus
$1,461,000 for the comparable period in 1999 ($849,000 for the second quarter of
1999). Higher retail land sales resulted in increased commission expense. Other
selling expenses were $574,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($315,000 for
the second quarter of 2000) versus $563,000 for the comparable period in 1999
($295,000 for the second quarter of 1999). Advertising and promotional expenses
increased to $227,000 for the first six months of 2000 ($107,000 for the second
quarter of 2000) versus $143,000 for the comparable period in 1999 ($133,000 for
the second quarter of 1999).
General and administrative expenses were $684,000 for the first six months of
2000 ($322,000 for the second quarter of 2000) versus $611,000 for the
comparable period in 1999 ($296,000 for the second quarter of 1999). General and
administrative expenses increased primarily due to increased overhead expenses.

<PAGE>
Real estate tax expenses were $287,000 for the first six months of 2000
($144,000 for the second quarter of 2000) versus $356,000 for the comparable
period in 1999 ($163,000 for the second quarter of 1999). Included in real
estate tax expense for 1999 was interest and administrative fees on delinquent
taxes, which accrued interest at 18% per annum.
Interest expense was $459,000 net of $47,00 of capitalized interest for the
first six months of 2000 ($205,000 for the second quarter of 2000) versus
$336,000 for the comparable period in 1999 ($220,000 for the second quarter of
1999). The increase in interest expense is a result of higher debt balances
accruing interest.
Net Income (Loss)
-----------------
The Company reported a net loss of $471,000 for the first six months of 2000
($69,000 for the second quarter of 2000) versus a loss of $519,000 for the
comparable period in 1999 ($222,000 for the second quarter of 1999).
Regulatory Developments which may affect Future Operations
----------------------------------------------------------
In Florida, as in many growth areas, local governments have sought to limit or
control population growth in their communities through restrictive zoning,
density reduction, the imposition of impact fees and more stringent development
requirements. Although the Company has taken such factors into consideration in
its master plans by agreeing, for example, to make improvements, construct
public facilities and dedicate certain property for public use, the increased
regulation has lengthened the development process and added to development
costs.
The implementation of the Florida Growth Management Act of 1985 (the "Act")
precludes the issuance of development orders or permits if public facilities
such as transportation, water and sewer services will not be available
concurrent with development. Development orders have been issued for, and
development has commenced in, the Company's existing communities (with
development being completed in certain of these communities). Thus, the
Company's communities are less likely to be affected by the new growth
management policies than future communities. Any future communities developed by
the Company will be strongly impacted by new growth management policies. Since
the Act and its implications are consistently being re-examined by the State,
together with local governments and various state and local governmental
agencies, the Company cannot further predict the timing or the effect of new
growth management policies, but anticipates that such policies may increase the
Company's permitting and development costs.
The Company's land sales activities are further subject to the jurisdiction of
the laws of various states in which the Company's properties are offered for
sale. In addition, Florida and other jurisdictions in which the Company's
properties are offered for sale have strengthened, or are considering
strengthening, their regulation of subdividers and subdivided lands in order to
provide further assurances to the public. The Company has attempted to take
appropriate steps to modify its marketing programs and registration applications
in the face of such increased regulation, but has incurred additional costs and
delays in the marketing of certain of its properties in certain states and
countries. For example, the Company has complied with the regulations of certain
states which require that the Company sell its properties to residents of those
states pursuant to a deed and mortgage transaction, regardless of the amount of
the down payment. The Company intends to continue to monitor any changes in
statutes or regulations affecting, or anticipated to affect, the sale of its
properties and intends to take all necessary and reasonable action to assure
that its properties and its proposed marketing programs are in compliance with
such regulations, but there can be no assurance that the Company will be able to
timely comply with all regulatory changes in all jurisdictions in which the
Company's properties are presently offered for sale to the public.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
-------------------------------
MORTGAGES AND SIMILAR DEBT
--------------------------
The Company has satisfied its outstanding debt to Scafholding. The terms of
repayment of the Yasawa debt have been restructured to provide for monthly
payments of principal in the amount of $100,000 payable monthly in cash or with
contracts receivable at 100% of face value, plus interest payable monthly on the
declining balance at the rate of 9.6% per annum in cash or with contracts
receivable at 65% of face value. Effective January 1, 1999, Yasawa agreed to
reduce the annual percentage rate on their existing loans to the Company from
9.6% to 6% per annum. Yasawa and Scafholding have not required the Company to
make monthly interest payments for the period September 1, 1998 to June 30,
2000. As of June 30, 2000, the total amount of interest accrued on the Yasawa
debt is approximately $883,000.

From October 9, 1998 through the present, Swan has advanced the Company funds to
meet its working capital requirements. The Company's outstanding debt to Swan,
which is secured by a second lien on the Company's receivables, is approximately
$6,168,000 and accrued interest on the Swan debt of $151,000 as of June 30,
2000. The Company signed a promissory note to Swan in March 1999 which provides
that funds advanced by Swan will be paid back by the Company monthly in
contracts receivables at 90% of face value, with recourse. There will be no
interest for the first six months after an advance of money is received from
Swan by the Company; thereafter the interest shall be 6% per annum on the
outstanding balance of the advance. Each time an advance is made, a supplemental
note is signed. The amount of each monthly payment will vary and will be
dependent upon the amount of contracts receivable in the Company's portfolio,
excluding contracts receivable held as collateral for prior receivable sales.
Pursuant to the terms of the promissory note, the Company is required to
transfer to Swan monthly as debt repayment all current contracts receivable in
the Company's portfolio in excess of the aggregate sum of $500,000. Funds
advanced by Swan were used by the Company to pay outstanding real estate taxes
for unsold properties with the balance to meet the Company's working capital
requirements.
The following table presents information with respect to mortgages and similar
debt (in thousands):

* Included in Mortgage Notes Payable is the Yasawa loan ($6,000,000 at
June 30, 2000); included in Other Loans is the Swan loan ($6,168,000
as of June 30, 2000).
Indebtedness under various purchase money mortgages and loan agreements is
collateralized by substantially all of the Company's assets, including stock of
certain wholly-owned subsidiaries. The Company's outstanding debt to Yasawa is
secured by a first lien on the Company's receivables and a mortgage on all of
the Company's property; and the Company's outstanding debt to Swan is secured by
a second lien on the Company's receivables.
CONTRACTS AND MORTGAGES RECEIVABLE SALES
----------------------------------------
In June, 1992 and February, 1990, the Company completed sales of contracts and
mortgages receivable totaling $13,500,000 and $17,000,000, respectively, which
generated approximately $8,000,000 and $13,900,000 respectively, in net proceeds
to the Company. The anticipated costs of the June, 1992 transaction were
included in the extraordinary loss from debt restructuring for 1991 since the
restructuring was dependent on the sale. The Company recorded a loss of $600,000
on the February, 1990 sale. In conjunction with these sales the Company granted
the purchaser a security interest in certain additional contracts receivable of
approximately $2,700,000 and conveyed all of its rights, title and interest in
the property underlying such contracts to a collateral trustee. In addition,
these transactions, among other things require that the Company replace or
repurchase any receivable that becomes 90 days delinquent upon the request of
the purchaser. Such requirement can be satisfied from contracts in which the
purchaser holds a security interest (approximately $1,659,000 as of June 30,
2000). The purchaser of these receivables experienced financial difficulty and
filed in 1994 for protection under Chapter 11 of the Federal Bankruptcy Code. In
November 1995, the purchaser of these receivables sold the portfolio to Finova
Capital Corporation. The Company has fully reserved for the estimated future
cancellations based on the Company's historical experience for receivables the
Company services and believes these reserves to be adequate. In 1999, the
Company did not replace any delinquent receivables. As of June 30, 2000 and
December 31, 1999 $1,233,000 and $1,244,000 in receivables were delinquent,
respectively.
During 1998, Scafholding purchased approximately $1,400,000 in contracts and
mortgages receivable from the Company at sixty-five percent (65%) of face value
with recourse for non-performing contracts. These sales generated approximately
$900,000 used to meet the Company's working capital requirements.
In the future, if the Company elects to do so, Yasawa and Scafholding have
agreed to purchase contracts receivable at 65% of face value, with recourse. The
Company has an agreement with Swan whereby Swan will loan the Company funds to
be repaid with contracts receivable at 90% of face value, with recourse.

The Company was the guarantor of approximately $13,850,000 of contracts
receivable sold or transferred as of June 30, 2000, for the transactions
described above. There are no funds on deposit with purchasers of the
receivables as security to assure collectibility as of such date. A provision
has been established for the Company's obligation under the recourse provisions
of which $3,868,000 remains at June 30, 2000. The Company has been in compliance
with all receivables transactions since the consummation of receivable sales.
The Company has an agreement with Scafholding and Citony Development Corporation
for the servicing of their receivable portfolios. The Company received
approximately $86,700 in 1999 in revenue pursuant to these agreements.
ACQUISITION OF HOMES UNDER CONSTRUCTION
---------------------------------------
In January 2000, the Company purchased 16 lots and homes under construction from
Scafholding for approximately $862,000. This amount represents Scafholding's lot
cost and payments to date to the home builder. This transaction was 100%
financed by Swan under its existing note payable arrangement.
OTHER OBLIGATIONS
-----------------
As of June 30, 2000, the Company had estimated development obligations of
approximately $25,000 on sold property, an estimated liability to provide title
insurance and deeding costs of $181,000 and an estimated cost of street
maintenance, prior to assumption of such obligations by local governments of
$610,000, all of which are included in deferred revenue. The total cost to
complete improvements as of June 30, 2000, including the previously mentioned
obligations, was estimated to be approximately $816,000 . The Company's
development obligation was substantially reduced in 1997 by the consummation of
the Agreement approved by the stockholders on November 4, 1997. Approximately
$7,400,000 of the development obligation at St. Augustine Shores was assumed by
Swan. In addition, the creation of a Lot Exchange Trust reduced the development
obligation at Marion Oaks and Sunny Hills by approximately $5,800,000.
LIQUIDITY
---------
Retail land sales have traditionally produced negative cash flow through the
point of sale as a result of a regulatory requirement to sell fully developed
lots and the additional requirement to pay marketing and selling expenses prior
to or shortly after the point of sale. In an effort to offset the negative cash
flow effects of installment land sales, the Company is directing a greater
portion of its marketing efforts to the sale of lots with homes and is now
offering lots for sale in compulsory building areas where a lot purchaser must
complete payments for the lot and construct a home within a limited period of
time.
The Company has been dependent on its ability to sell or otherwise finance its
contracts receivable and/or secure other financing to meet its cash
requirements. Since 1992, the Company has been largely dependent on Yasawa,
Scafholding and Swan and related parties for the financing of its operations.
Although Scafholding has purchased contracts receivables at the rate of 65% of
face value, with recourse, and Swan has loaned the Company additional funds to
be paid back with contracts receivable at the rate of 90% of face value, with
recourse, there can be no guarantee that the Company will be able to generate
sufficient receivables to obtain sufficient financing in the future or that
Yasawa, Scafholding, Swan and other related parties will continue to make loans
to the Company.
